For anyone who's played Demon's Souls... how effective do you think magic will be in this game compared to melee. I'm leaning towards a Sorcerer, even though I think the outfit is kinda lame, or I might go with a Thief. Also, all the videos I've seen have been with characters carrying a sword and shield. Is there dual wielding? I imagine if there is, it must be harder to pull off.

Using magic made the first few levels in Demon's souls much much easier,the Royalty class had a rare ring that refills you MP over time, it was kind of a cheap way to win some epic bosses fight like Tower knight,you could have cast spells then hide until the MP is full again instead of attacking him with your sword ( trust me you need to be really brave to do that) , however, the assistant spells are the most useful ones , you cast a spell on your sword that increase the damage, or casting a magical shield on yourself, it's really hard to win PvP fight without such spells.

Anyways, I acquired all the spells in Demon's souls and I wasn't a magician , it was all about how you build you character. I don't know if Dark souls would be the same or there would be some exclusive advanced spells for Sorcerers.

I'm sure there will be some epic spells, like Fire storm in Demon's souls, when I first saw it I was like "HOLY S*IT" :p
